I dread it even for grocery lists. For one the apps (Notion, Google Docs, you name it) all give me a stupid splash screen when I tap them, and I have to wait 5-10 seconds to see content. We're in 2023. Splash screens should be unnecessary. Opening a piece of text should take no more than 50ms after the tap on the app icon.
About half the grocery stores I frequent have no cell phone signal. Why the HELL can't a device in 2023, with all the machine learning we have today, deduce from my GPS track and time/day deduce that I'm probably headed to one of several grocery stores, record that the last time said grocery store had no signal, and pre-download anything that looks like a grocery list, or hell, labelled explicitly as one? And do whatever rendering it needs off screen so that it's no more than 25ms from tapping the app icon to viewing it? It has a GHz+ processor, 90Hz screen, 25ms isn't a tall ask to render some text. 5-10 seconds? What are engineers busy doing?
And this is why I still use post-its for grocery lists.
